About this course

Farmstead Golf & Country Club sits in the rolling hills of Sussex County in northwestern New Jersey, where the landscape transitions from suburban development to more rural terrain. The facility features two eighteen-hole courses—Clubview and Valleyview—designed by Byron Phoebus, a regional architect active in the mid-to-late twentieth century who worked primarily in the Mid-Atlantic states. Both layouts take advantage of the property's natural elevation changes and wooded corridors typical of this part of New Jersey. The Clubview and Valleyview courses share the common characteristics of Phoebus's design approach: straightforward routing that follows the land's contours, tree-lined fairways that demand accuracy from the tee, and greens that incorporate modest undulation. The terrain here provides natural movement through the holes, with several elevation changes that affect club selection and create visual interest. Water features appear periodically, and bunkers are positioned to defend greens and catch errant tee shots on the tighter holes. Farmstead operates as a semi-private facility, offering both member and daily-fee play depending on the season and day of the week. The club serves the surrounding communities of northwestern New Jersey and provides a traditional country club experience with dining and event facilities alongside its golf offerings. The dual-course setup allows the club to accommodate substantial play volume while maintaining course conditions throughout the season.

Getting there

Most arrivals to Farmstead Golf & Country Club begin at Newark Liberty International (EWR), roughly an hour's drive northwest into the wooded folds of Sussex County. The route traces Interstate 80 west before peeling off into the quieter, rolling farmland and forest that define this corner of New Jersey, where the landscape softens and the density of the metro corridor gives way to open pasture and low ridgelines. Teterboro Airport serves those arriving by private aircraft, shaving minutes from the approach while preserving the same gentle transition from suburb to countryside. The final miles wind through Lafayette's rural byways, delivering you to a secluded enclave that feels far removed from the urban hum less than sixty miles behind.
